  • land
  • than
  • the
  • gods
  • who
  • raised
  • her.She
  • does
  • not

  • day
  • love
  • will
  • burn
  • so
  • deep
  • in
  • her
  • heart
  • that
  • its
  • scars
  • will
  • never
  • heal.
  • That
  • she
  • will
  • know
  • pain
  • so
  • raw
  • and
  • pure
  • it
  • will
  • almost
  • tear
  • her
